Admirals Aparthotel - what a dump, what a horrible horrible place. We have been to this Aparthotel many times but not in the last 5 years, and boy has it changed, or not should i say, the decor is vile, insects climbing the walls or stuck to them if they have been swatted and just left. The bathroom was like something from a 1930's horror film, dingey, dirty, falling apart and full of ants and mould.

The guy on reception who - I quote - "has been there 17 years" clearly didnt learn any customer services skills in that time, he grunted his reply when we asked why our DOOR DIDNT LOCK and how, if the room had no aircon facility, was he intending to "sort it later!!!!"

Our friends with us had an even worse experience and were told when we all arrived to check in to our Hotel rooms that were booked to be together, that things had changed and they were sent to the Commodore and worse still, staff quaters!!! It was so bad, i cant find the words to express the smell and the condition of the "pit".

Thomas Cook were our agents and after 4 hours of phone calls, we moved ourselves, Thomas Cook admitted the rooms were in breach of numerous health and safety issues and were rooms that they had had "lots" of problems with and had moved guests from on a regular basis!!!

We did go to a great hotel, the CONTESSA that had 2 great attractions, SIMON and GEMMA, the entertainment team who made this holiday for us, we had a great time there, the rooms were clean, spacious and had clean towels as and when we wanted them. The lady on reception was fantastic, all the staff had the holiday makers interests first - a complete contrast to the Admiral.

Please dont take my word for it, read all the holiday reports on this place, we should have. Its gone down hill and been neglected, there are some fabulous rooms there, but the Polish agents have these rooms so UK guests you have no chance of a decent room.

We stayed there from 12th September 2008 and only got back Friday.

Argassi is lovely and the people are friendly and kind. The CASTAWAY restaurant was by far our favorite but Pheonix was a good breakfast. The Beer Acadamy and Snack Acadamy take a lot to beat too, make sure you try them..

We have just returned from a great two weeks staying at this property. The staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. Rooms were basic but clean and had what you needed. We were lucky to have a great view over the bay to Zante town from our balcony although this was not used much the second week as got quite cool in the evenings. Danny was a great laugh and made sure everyone was enjoying themselves. Just about all the guests were british during the two weeks which was nice and we made a lot of new friends.

Thanks guys for the assistance and friendliness shown, we made the flight by the skin of our teeth yesterday once the transfer taxi finally turned up.

If we come back to Zante will not hesitate to visit you again.

This was our 8th visit to Argassi and our first and last time staying at the Admirals.

First impressions were good, . Modern and recently refurbed rooms a separate sleeping area for our little girl. The bathroom was lovely with a bath and shower. Kitchen basic but what you expect in Greece.

But first impressions can be wrong....

Flat lilos at the bottom of the pool, ashtrays and bottles floating in the pool along with sweets. Not a very big pool considering the size of the hotel.

Maids did not clean rooms very well, underneath the beds were disgusting as we found out when our little girl dropped her sweets under the bed....

The balcony was never swept, even after the fires in the mountains deposited ash all over it.

The sheets and towels were only changed twice during the 2 weeks we were there and when we complained to reception they said "not my problem!"

All the rooms equiped differently some had TV's (not that we need one) and varying electric appliances, we asked reception if we could have a toaster instead of a grill and reply was "you get what you get, if you want swap find someone"

They are more interested in the poles than any other tourist, even letting them sit by the poolside at all hours drinking.

Needless to say we will not be staying here again.

Before I start I love argassi and enjoyed my holiday but I was disapointed this year because of the admiral.

Sam has gone 16 August she was fed up with the management we saw her before she went. plus steph has gone home too

The place is full of polish people they even have polish night (why) this is greece I thought, but the polish are all inclusive and this is what the management want us all to do but this would destroy argassi if all hotels start doing this.

But the pool at night was discusting full of bottles & ashtrays and the staff were not happy and were very unhelpfull at times there was 2 lads were really helpful the bar man in the evenings and the English receptionist otherwise forget it

Thomas cook has withdrawn the contract from the admiral and I can see why I have stayed here for 4 years so I was upset to see this place go down hill like this we didnt stay by the pool went to the beech everyday after seeing the state of the pool on our first night .

as I said still had a great time as we love argassi and it is only a base but such a shame to see how this place has gone down. I have already booked for next year but we are not in the admiral
